How to Watch the Best Christmas Ever

You can watch AMC’s Best Christmas Ever on cable but if you don’t have cable don’t worry there are some great ways to watch AMC and  AMC+.

One easy way is with Sling TV. This would be a great service to use to watch many of your favorite Christmas movies. Not only is AMC one of the channels available but you can also get Hallmark, Lifetime, and Freeform. All of which offer a ton of Christmas movies and specials.

Another great option, the one I’m currently using, is YouTubeTV. They also offer other great channels like Hallmark, Freeform, BET, and more.

You can get AMC+ on YouTubeTV, Sling TV, Roku Channel, Apple TV, Amazon Prime, Directv, MyDish, and Xfinity.
